Yamaha rider Fabio Quartarao continues to lead the riders' championship going to Austria, with his lead marginally growing to 22 points over Aprilia's Aleix Espargaro.
However, there is a looming threat from Ducati star Francesco Bagnaia in the wake of his victory in the British GP earlier this month, even as he has a lot of ground to recover before he can trouble the leading two.
As far as the track itself is concerned, Turn 2 has been replaced by a chicane as part of the organiser's ongoing efforts to increase safety.
